New host for the Yahoo-bot

After it was already announced in the Yahoo-Blog, the new Host for the Yahoo-crawler can now also be seen in the logfiles. While in the past they used subdomains of inktomisearch.com, now the bot is using subdomains of crawl.yahoo.net:

lj612026.crawl.yahoo.net - - [31/Mar/2007:19:23:09 +0200] "GET /news/ HTTP/1.0" 200 31337 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Yahoo! Slurp; http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/slurp)"

The useragent and other distinctive features are still the same.
